Map  |  Elevations

Enjoy vistas of the Pacific Coast as you take a scenic tour of the spectacular Marin Headlands with views of Tiburon, San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge. The course is a 25-mile loop. The first loop is clockwise. Then, you reverse direction to counterclockwise and alternate ("washing-machine" loops). (Distances are accurately measured using a Rolatape® surveyor's measuring wheel.)

Aid Stations:

Fully-stocked aid stations every 4 - 5 miles. You can expect fresh fruit, salty snacks, assorted candy, boiled potatoes & salt, water, and Clif Shot Electrolyte sports drink. In addition, the start/finish and Tennessee Valley aid stations will have soup and other ‘real’ food during the night and second morning. If you would like to be sure that you have Clif product, SaltStick capsules, or any other specific item at the event, you should carry it with you. Additionally, it is highly recommended that runners carry at least 20 oz. of water between aid stations.

Awards:

Patagonia Capilene 1 shirts will be given to all runners, and buckles to all finishers. There are two buckles: sub-24 hour finishers' buckles and over 24 hour finishers' buckles. Awards will be given to the first overall female and male finisher, and medals to the first female and male finisher in each 10-year age group ( <20, 20-29, etc.). Overall winners do not qualify for age group awards.
